Beauty
The Spanish doesn't need another bodice, but...but...whimper. Also, for the upcoming leopard-print cabaret costume, sob, whine.
But. Too much fabric already + Not enough money = No Fabric Purchases.
I thought my neck was better when I went to bed last night, but I woke up with it killing me again this morning. At what point do I break down and make an appointment with a chiropractor? I'm not sure. Damn my high pain tolerance, because I feel like $100 is better spent paying off the credit card right now.
She's a Beauty by The Tubes just came on the radio. I love this song. Why does all their other stuff suck so bad?

Chiropractor sooner works much better than later.
And yes, you should do that fabric. It's too faboo to pass up, and what does it take to do a bodice for your tiny assed body at this point?

=D Fabric.com has a minimum one yard cut. I certainly don't need more than that.

Can either of these potential new outfits be made, or faked, with materials at hand?
no subject
Gods, yes. I have *miles* of fabric. I just want these new ones...

I've been shown an interesting black/red fabric with skulls woven into it. Perfect, no? But I'm pretty darned sure it would never get past the costume nazis, and it is very polyester, meaning it wouldn't breathe.
But, Gods and Monsters, it would look neat ...

Do you think you have anything in my color ranges? Deep jewel tones or coppery works for me.

Of course the Spanish needs a new bodice. She's from Spain - you know, where the fashion comes from. How will the rest of us know what to copy otherwise? *grin*

Have you seen Butterick's new bodice pattern (http://store.sewingtoday.com/cgi-bin/butterick/shop.cgi?s.item.B4669=x&TI='4669'&page=1)? I wouldn't use the actual bodice (

And keep resisting the temptations! Remember, Cy's big sale is the day after Christmas. Not only tons of cool fabric, but you can also TOUCH IT! And might even have Christmas money to spend :) :) :).

And I will, I guarantee it!

If your insurance doesn't cover Chiro, consider going to a D.O. They get similar training to chiropractors, and as medical doctors as well. I recommend Inzerillo Family Practice. Dr. Inzerillo can take care of that neck for you. I expect his partner, Dr. Alice Bremby could do the same but I haven't actually met her yet.
I'll blog the scarf when I have it all done.
no subject
Thanks for the tip on the D.O. I have to get a referral from my PCP first though. Boo. If it's not better over the weekend, I'll call in for an appointment (that I have to pay $20 for) to get a referral ($30 payment to the non-PCP office visit). Why do I bother paying health insurance?

Now that I have knitted a scarf, I think I will try my hands at the Hermione hat--the Hatmione (http://knit.atypically.net/hats/hermione/)--a cable and bob hat that should go nicely with the scarf.
So, want to meet for an Indian food lunch sometime? I can easily get just about anywhere
dowtown for lunch.

The Tubes
She's a Beauty by The Tubes just came on the radio. I love this song. Why does all their other stuff suck so bad?
They are kind of an odd band. It seems like there must have been some kind of shift in strategy with "The Completion Backward Principle" and then more so with "Outside Inside". And then, they didn't produce any more until "Genius of America". They do have some other good songs, but they have a lot of stuff that's just not worth the time you might spend listening to it. If you haven't heard them, you might listen to "Fastest Gun Alive" and "How Can You Live with Yourself".
In general, though, listening to them is like watching an active company. Each song shows you a picture of something. It's never them telling you about themselves, but rather they are putting on a show of a sort. There's tremendous variety in the styles of songs (in their later stuff, at least), and it would be easy to fail to recognize new songs as being from the same group.
In any case, sorry to hear about your neck. I hope it get's better.

Re: The Tubes
Exactly! I don't mind bands trying new things with albums--but every single song? And most of it, IMO, rather irritating.

your chiropractor charges $100??
HOWEVER, YES, go see your chiropractor. & use ice.
& buy yourself some fabric for christmas. ;-)
Re: your chiropractor charges $100??
Sigh.
And I didn't buy the fabric. I bought books instead. *grin*
ok...
That's still a LOT. Cost of living is higher up here & prices aren't that high for most chiropractors. Of course, we have one of the nations highest per capita percentage of them, so perhaps they HAVE to charge less up here.
